Stjarnagloss Glatt Protective Rinse Aid – Hydrophobic Water-Repellent Finish 1 Litre
Stjarnagloss Glatt is a fast-acting water-repellent rinse aid designed to give your car a protective, hydrophobic finish after washing. Applied to a wet vehicle, Glatt helps water and contaminants run off the surface, reducing water spots and speeding up drying, all while enhancing shine and surface smoothness.:contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}
Unlike foam-based sealants, Glatt doesn’t generate suds — it’s applied after rinse and immediately creates a hydrophobic layer that encourages water to bead and slide off the paintwork. It’s a quick and easy way to add protection and improve water behaviour at the end of your wash routine.:contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}

How to Use Stjarnagloss Glatt

Tips & Tricks

FAQ
Can Glatt be used on wheels?
Yes — it can be used on wheels after washing, but always rinse thoroughly and avoid letting it dry on hot metal surfaces.
Will Glatt strip wax or sealants?
No — when used correctly, Glatt adds a hydrophobic layer on top of existing protection. Always rinse off properly after application.
Can I use Glatt on my windscreen?
We recommend avoiding the windscreen to maintain visibility — instead use a dedicated glass product for the screen itself.
Pair With: Use Glatt after your regular wash and foam stage, then dry with a high-absorbency Microfibre towel for best results and lasting water repellency.
